23.01.2022 The University of Western Australia's Dr Ingrid van Bremen, Senior lecturer in Architectural Conservation with her students at J Shed Freo Ingrid writes about her course: "Our first field exercise is to study Arthur Head Reserve as a cultural landscape. We look at the cultural values embodied in the place, both tangible (landforms, structures, objects) and intangible (stories, interpretations, associations, traditions and uses). We also look at the threats to the cultural val...ue of the place including from inappropriate development. At J-shed we consider the problems for the cultural landscape of Arthur Head Reserve associated with proposals for change of use and development as a tavern. I have already given the considered opinion that the current cultural value of J-shed is more in the ongoing long standing use as Fremantle artists working studios, than in the structure itself, that the use is now a cultural asset to the place, particularly as an open house welcoming interested public like ourselves. We will see what the students make of it." #JShedArtStudio_Unit3 Hello Perth Visit Fremantle #thisisfremantle

10.01.2022 BHP Billiton Water Park 'Pinjah' is on DevelopmentWA. They write: " A collaboration between artists Sandra Hill and Jenny Dawson, the artwork represents the Dreaming story of the creation of the Milky Way. Pinjah, the Whadjuk word for tadpole, depicts water winding its way through the playground with the smaller blue circles representing Hyde Park Lake and Lake Monger, the only two remaining lakes that are left in the greater Perth area. The black circle is representative of the ongoing presence of the Noongar people of South Western Australia and the red circle symbolises the blood of the people, in the past, the present and the future" Link: https://www.mra.wa.gov.au//elizabeth-qu/attractions/pinjah Hello Perth Peter Zuvela
